A flashback on anticipation

On Donna's wonderful Blog, Double Happiness, http://2happy.typepad.com/ she posed the challenge for other bloggers to post weekly photos with a certain theme. This week, her theme was "Anticipation".

I dug up these two photos. In the first photo, taken just minutes from 'Gotcha', Kimberley's expression spoke volumes about what she was feeling waiting for her daughter, I just sat there looking giddy. The second photo, shows Colin and I mere seconds before Sophia entered the room. I can remember that my body felt like jelly and I could scarcely breathe. It felt surreal. Sometimes, it still does.

On the topic of anticipation, we no longer need to anticipate winter. It has arrived (days before Fall has even officially arrived). The wind has been roaring, bringing with it snow and a chill that cuts through all clothes and quickly seeps into the bones. Sophia wasn't quite sure of what to make the white stuff. It wasn't sticking to the ground. It will be interesting to see her reaction to a few inches of it.
